WHO: Leona Lewis
WHAT: "Bleeding Love" (The Tonight Show With Jay Leno)
WHY: After breaking all sorts of records in the U.K. last year, Leona Lewis's incredible "Bleeding Love" finally hit no. 1 in the U.S. this week. America, you got this one right. To celebrate, we give you her pitch-perfect recent performance on the Tonight Show. Leona looks and sounds the part with ease — and we've got to give it up to her drummer for recreating the song's trademark snare so precisely (though he needs to lay off those splash cymbals a bit). This week she'll have some tough Billboard competition with Mariah Carey looking to bank her millionth chart topper with "Touch My Body." Let 2008's Diva Duel begin!
